I was at one time going to be the eBay evo! Only install ebay items, turbo, exhaust, injectors, etc, and see what happens. I love my evo too much though.

Many ebay parts work just fine if you will give them a chance. How much power has been made on Ebay intercoolers...endless. Is it the best, no. Will it get the job done, yes. I looked at this a couple of weeks ago. My concern would be strength. Other than that, it looks really freakin light.

Is it me or does it look like its missing a hole for a bolt?

And they claim its stiffer... from what I always thought aluminum always flexed more than steel. And the part that comes up towards the front is that supposed to replace the motor mount?

I thought the eBay intercooler was garbage and only good for 1 run since it heatsoaks like crazy.
